Long term Australia programmes at Kaplan International, Brisbane

Host family
Thanks to a very good network of host families, students have the opportunity to stay with an Australian family, in a single room with half board provided. Staying with a host family is an excellent opportunity to experience Australian culture first hand while practising the language naturally! The families sometimes welcome other students of a different mother tongue which will allow you to make new friends and connections with ease.

Guest house (Minimum 4 weeks, ages 18 and over)
Accommodation in a student guest house is ideal for meeting other students and living independently. Our partner school offers accommodation in a guest house, located around 25 minutes' walk from the course centre. The guest house is located in the south of Brisbane, close to public transport and Southbank train station. You'll stay in a single room and share the bathroom. Bed linen and towels are provided and the place is cleaned once a week. From Monday to Friday, an evening meal will be served, with breakfast available every day, and the opportunity to enjoy a barbecue on the weekend with the other students. A kitchen, including a fridge, a coffee and tea machine, and microwaves, is available. You will have access to a (paid) laundry room and a telephone. Internet access is also at an extra charge.
